Press Release |

MILWAUKEE, WI – The Milwaukee Brewers today announced the team's promotional schedule for the 2013 season and set Saturday, February 23 as the date for this year's Arctic Tailgate party. The Arctic Tailgate marks the beginning of individual ticket sales at Miller Park. Individual game tickets will go on sale at 9 a.m. that day.

There are numerous promotional opportunities on tap as Miller Park promises to once again be the place to be throughout the spring and summer of 2013. For information on all 10 bobblehead dates, which was previously announced in early November, please refer to http://bitly.com/2013bobbles.

The "5-County, 5-Day Celebration" will take place from April 29–May 3. During this time, all residents of Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Racine, Washington and Waukesha counties can purchase tickets at a 50% savings on all reserved seats (excluding the Miller Lite Beerpen, All-Inclusive Areas and the $1 Uecker Seats). More great bargains are in store when the Brewers host "Spring Madness" from May 20-22, with all seats regularly priced at $34 and less available at a savings of 50% (excluding the Miller Lite Beerpen, All-Inclusive Areas and $1 Uecker Seats). For these three games against the Los Angeles Dodgers, small Pepsi products and Klement's hot dogs will be just $1 each.

In addition to the two annual tribute events - Cerveceros Day (Saturday, June 8 vs. Philadelphia) and the Negro Leagues Tribute Night (Saturday, July 20 vs. Miami) - the Brewers will host Polish Heritage Day on Sunday, June 23 against the Atlanta Braves. On these dates, the Brewers will wear special uniform tops, including a "Piwowarzy" jersey (the Polish translation of "Brewers").

Youth players will want to be in attendance for the popular Little League Night on Tuesday, June 25 as the Brewers open a series against the Chicago Cubs. All Little Leaguers in uniform (registered in advance through local youth leagues) will have the opportunity to parade around the warning track in a pre-game ceremony.

On Saturday, July 20, the 15th Annual Brewers Community Foundation 5K Famous Racing SausagesTMRun/Walk will begin at 8 a.m. for runners (8:15 a.m. for walkers) at the Klement's Sausage Haus at Miller Park, with all proceeds supporting the programs of Brewers Community Foundation. Participants will receive a t-shirt, Klement's hot dog, a bottle of Aquafina and a ticket voucher redeemable for one of eight specified regular season games in 2013.

Retro Fridays will be designated for the first home Friday game of every month. They include: April 5 vs. Arizona, May 3 vs. St. Louis, June 7 vs. Philadelphia, July 5 vs. New York-NL, August 2 vs. Washington and September 13 vs. Cincinnati. U.S. Bank Kids Autograph Saturdays, which is designated for kids 14 and under, will return on select Saturdays throughout the season.
